Biggles Flies East

Then something like panic seized him as he visualized the unthinkable picture of his gunner killing Algy, or conversely, Algy’s feelings when he found that he had shot down his best friend. Whatever else happened, that must be avoided at all costs. Better to betray himself and be shot by the Huns than that should happen.

  1. This gets me EVERY time I read it. Biggles would rather die at the hands of the enemy than give his friend heartache. **sniff**

  2. I imagine that Algy would have heartache either way, really.

    Well, that goes for both of them.

    SUCH best friends. *big heart*
